    Does the butter have to be at room temperature or cold?

    No crust? Do you have a version of this recipe with a crust? Wondering if you would pre-bake it if adding a crust.

    Never made these before so hoping for a bit of guidance. Should I use a cupcake pan? 12 cakes size. Does the recipe make only 8 tarts as servings suggests?

    Actually Kathy, you will probably need a couple of those cupcake pans, this recipe makes about 20 tarts.

    My family's favorite. I've made these many times. I cannot go to my brothers place without them. They also freeze well.

    Does it matter what kind of milk you use? Is 2% ok or does it need to be whole milk?

    Yes, you can use 2% Megan, you won't notice a large difference.
